Ingredientes

- Ingredients
- 5 lbs cucumbers (Kirby's are ideal), ends removed and sliced into 1/4" coins
- 1 lb sweet onions, sliced (you can also roughly chop but I actually like to eat them along with the pickles and the slices are easier to handle
- 1/2 cup kosher salt
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 4 cups distilled white vinegar - I like to buy white vinegar in bulk so I'm not caught out when I want to pickle something
- 2 cups water

- 1 Tbsp celery seed
- 1 Tbsp turmeric
- 1 Tbsp kosher salt
